Today’s podcast features an Interview with Sherpa John Lacroix, a fixture of the Colorado ultramarathon running scene and founder of Human Potential Running. Not only does Sherpa John organize some of the most scenic (and toughest) trail races around, he is also an accomplished ultramarathon runner himself. He’s finished 200-mile races, over a dozen 100-mile runs and countless other adventures in addition to his most recent one: a heroic attempt to run 300+ miles to raise awareness for mental health issues in our society.
